Before anyone mentions it yes I have done the "Make objects clickable" tutorial. I even understand the blender side of it.

Problem is that I am starting from zero on scripting and don't know how to take the script stub provided

Show Spoiler

Code: Select all

ObjectName:
    physical:
        pinned: true
    quickscript:
        simpleclick:
            pythonfile: myPythonFile
            region: MyClickRegion

and generate a useful action in the python stub.

Code: Select all

actClickableObject = ptAttribActivator(1, 'Clickable object activator')
strObject = ptAttribString(2, 'Object string')

class myPythonFile(ptModifier,):

    def OnNotify(self, state, id, events):
        if ((id == actClickableObject.id) and state):
            print ('Object %s was clicked' % strObject.value)
            #place your code here

If someone can walk me through how to properly reference a object in python to simulate the movement of a pocket door......

I've got the animated door Age and the python is simple enough to follow; It just doesn't make sense I haven't been able to look at the code and go "eureka" that's how you do it.

Seems like Boblishman's newly added article may be exactly what you are looking for:

( Don't look to me for closer explanations on what it all means, though.) :7

No explanation needed the script is fairly clear, I could just never figure out how to go from the script to the python.

Wish I had know about this a couple weeks ago.
